Eleventh grade

not relaxed then not performing as well seems to be quite possible. The 400% increase in participants who don’t feel stress in the math classroom after the action implementation shows me the impact of removing a grade. I enjoyed seeing students being able to focus during assessments and not squirming in the chair and asking questions on how to complete a particular task. When the students were presented with a task that they were not real comfortable with or did not understand proficiently…

teacher to explain the topic more to me, I felt like I was speaking to Cheshire Cat, and that didn’t help. I would go back to my desk feeling even more confused than before. I hated writing. I only wrote on a need-to-write basis, and only because my grade depended on it. I was always given a boring topic I didn’t care for, never was I taught that there was a way to make that topic mine, a way to embrace it and incorporate it into my own experiences. It seemed…

When I was little, my cousin, who was a grade older than me, was sort of like the leader of the few boys we had our split class. I never realized that I was being treated differently from all the other girls in my class. My classmates seemed to simply accepted the fact that I was the only girl allowed to play with the boys – and it did not occur to me that I was the only one given that I played with the girls as well. However, one year (I think it was grade three) a new girl came to our class…

actual job they want to be a freaking fashion police. These teachers take up too much of their time trying to dress code when they need to be focusing on their grades and why some students are failing or even focusing on putting grades in grade speed the main teachers who dress code are the ones who never have good curriculum or good grade averages.…

students the chance to participate in an athletic sport. Regardless of your school's size there is usually a very good chance that a student can play in a sport. Playing sports in high school has more pros than it does cons. Yes, it can distract from grades, cause injury, and be a big time suck. It can help reduce stress, teach teamwork, give someone a healthy drive to compete and teach leadership skills. Being on an athletic team is one of the best things that I’ve ever done. I’ve created the…

important to keep on trying. At the beginning of my freshman year in college, I was enrolled in an English 1301 class, which I started off the semester with a grade of 80. By the end of the semester I had achieved a final grade of an 89, and while I fell short of an A, through persistence I was able to hone my writing skills and raise my grade by nine points. College requires that one must be persistent, otherwise it is easy to fall short of achieving one’s goals. It is impossible to get better…

Compared to other countries, the United States consistently ranks lower than foreign countries on international tests. Martin Carnoy and Richard Rothstein extracted data from average national test scores to examine the claim of Americans scoring the…

Does a student’s attitude play a role in their success in school? According to Andrew J. Martin and Herbert W. Marsh, resilience is a key factor in whether you will not only be more successful in school, but in life after that. In their study, they collected data based off specific psychological questions that determined if students in high school possessed this base characteristic of success. Martin and Marsh used the answers to the students’ questions, calculated them on a mathematic scale,…
